Answer:

(A) considering the charge "q" evenly distributed, applying the technique of charge integration for finite charges, you obtain the expression for the potential along any point in the Z-axis:

V(z)=\frac{Q}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) \sqrt{R^{2} +z^{2}}  }

With (\epsilon_{0}) been the vacuum permittivity

(B) The expression for the magnitude of the E(z) electric field along the Z-axis is:

E(z)=\frac{QZ}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) (R^{2} +z^{2})^{\frac{3}{2} }    }

Explanation:

(A) Considering a uniform linear density λ_{0} on the ring, then:

dQ=\lambda dl (1)⇒Q=\lambda_{0} 2\pi R(2)⇒\lambda_{0}=\frac{Q}{2\pi R}(3)

Applying the technique of charge integration for finite charges:

V(z)= 4\pi (ε_{0})\int\limits^a_b {\frac{1}{ r'  }} \, dQ(4)

Been r' the distance between the charge and the observation point and a, b limits of integration of the charge. In this case a=2π and b=0.

Using cylindrical coordinates, the distance between a point of the Z-axis and a point of a ring with R radius is:

r'=\sqrt{R^{2} +Z^{2}}(5)

Using the expressions (1),(4) and (5) you obtain:

V(z)= 4\pi (\epsilon_{0})\int\limits^a_b {\frac{\lambda_{0}R}{ \sqrt{R^{2} +Z^{2}}  }} \, d\phi

Integrating results:

V(z)=\frac{Q}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) \sqrt{R^{2} +z^{2}}  }   (S_a)

(B) For the expression of the magnitude of the field E(z), is important to remember:

|E| =-\nabla V (6)

But in this case you only work in the z variable, soo the expression (6) can be rewritten as:

|E| =-\frac{dV(z)}{dz} (7)

Using expression (7) and (S_a), you get the expression of the magnitude of the field E(z):

E(z)=\frac{QZ}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) (R^{2} +z^{2})^{\frac{3}{2} }    } (S_b)

2.1 Define Resultant vector​
lord [1]

Explanation:

In vector geometry, the resultant vector is defined as: “A resultant vector is a combination or, in simpler words, can be defined as the sum of two or more vectors which has its own magnitude and direction.”

I hope it's helpful!

Answer:

John Dalton

Explanation:

Dalton's atomic theory was the foundation for a new understanding of chemical structures. He proposed that matter was constituted by indivisible and indestructible particles "atoms." He theorized that all atoms of a particular substance were equal, and the atoms of different substances had atoms of different sizes and masses.

He also proposed that all compounds of elements were combinations of elements but in a very precise ratio.

A mass of 3.6 kg oscillate on a horizontal spring with a spring constant of 160 N/m.
Darya [45]

Answer:

48.7 J

Explanation:

For a mass-spring system, there is a continuous conversion of energy between elastic potential energy and kinetic energy.

In particular:

- The elastic potential energy is maximum when the system is at its maximum displacement

- The kinetic energy is maximum when the system passes through the equilibrium position

Therefore, the maximum kinetic energy of the system is given by:

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass

v is the speed at equilibrium position

In this problem:

m = 3.6 kg

v = 5.2 m/s

Therefore, the maximum kinetic energy is:

KE=\frac{1}{2}(3.6)(5.2)^2=48.7 J
